You Know You're A Mom When...by Me

You know you're a mom when your child hugs you tight .And you forgive them for keeping you up through the night.You know you're a mom when you run around trying to clean sticky hands.And you sometimes find yourself singing songs from famous kids singing bands.You know you're a mom when your favorite words seems to be "No! No! No! No!".And you have conversations with your friends about who's hotter - Steve or Joe.You know you're a mom when you name things with a color - like blue sky and green grass.And you exclaim words like "Oh Sugar!", but not "Sh@# !", "Fu$% !" or "A%@ !"You know you're a mom when you pray for a two hour nap.And as you go pee you have a child sitting on your lap.You know you're a mom when you know ALL of the puppets - not just Elmo and ErnieAnd just going to the grocery store seems like the journey of all journeys.You know you're a mom when all you do is worry.And when they're in trouble, you're the judge AND the jury.You know you're a mom when your house looks like a toy store threw up.And the only clean thing to drink out of is a Dora sippy cup.You know you're a mom when things in your house is either shut, bolted or tied.And your menu consists of chicken nuggets that are baked and not fried.You know you're a mom when you always make yourself last.And you get sad when you think how they're growing up so fast.

I'm sure I may do things different than others.But there is one thing that's certain...we are all mothers.(And we really do have eyes in the backs of our heads...)
